Nobody in this story was trying to stop anybody celebrating, it's literally just talking about moving the date to the nearest weekend instead of giving people a day off work to celebrate
Sorry day has been around since I was in school two decades ago. Never once did my mother send me to school on that day because apologizing for existing and things our ancestors did is a load of 💩
So they were your ancestors. I've been wondering who's ancestors are always talked about, when land stealing and genocide are mentioned, because I'm a fifth gen Aussie and none of my ancestors ever stole land or ever killed anybody.
@@CraigHarvey Forcing my 5 year old 7th generation Aussie grandson's class, in kindy/preps at Primary School, four years ago, to colour in a poster of a psuedoflag with "We say SORRY for when the whitepeople stole the black people's children", written on it, never seemed like a wasted opportunity, to me Craig. Child abuse was what actually came to mind, not to mention racist slander.
@@brettralph3403 I know what you mean - it's important to stamp out development of empathy early! Once it takes hold, they get concerned about all kinds of things. When my son was in kindy they tried to teach him about some white yobbos who invaded a muslim country in the name of the King. A King can you believe it!? And the kids were colouring in the wrong flag (the current blue ensign which didn't exist!). I said no way, none of our ancestors were involved so you can stop teaching my kid that bit of history.
0) my European ancestors arrived in chains. They were put to work during the day building roads, bridges, imperial buildings, jails. Then they were put back in chains of a night. There pay was food . There punishments were, no food, water, or tied to a post and whipped. The blood sweat and tears of my European ancestors have mixed with the dirt of this country. This is my land.
And so many were dragged kicking and screaming from their homeland and their families (never to see either again!) for nothing more than objecting to the unjust treatment they received from those who had taken over their land. Many of course did commit serious crimes but many did not. Some never even made it up the beaches when they arrived.....I am so tired of this one-sided story.
Same as people who are atheist and non Christians taking off Christmas and Easter or anti Royalists taking off The King's birthday..or anti unionists taking off Labor Day.
Welcome to my country. I'd like to acknowledge the early pioneers who came to this country over two hundred years ago and developed an almost uninhabitable land by establishing farms, roads, schools, hospitals, towns and cities, railways, ports and harbours, universities, health clinics, telecommunications, factories and industries, warm (or cool) comfortable homes, shopping centres, a reliable abundant food supply, libraries, clean water, electricity and gas, airlines, the mining industry ... the list goes on. Welcome to my country.
Brovo sir ,outstanding. We will move through this nonsense with people exactly like you. Our voice matters the more people saying concise logic make a difference.
At the expense of the culture and population that inhabited prior. Sounds like an invasion! Well guess jan26 really is invasion day. Well pointed out mate.
Isn't it more "woke" to enshrine the weekday that everyone gets off work instead of moving celebrations to the saturday so that businesses don't have to give people the day off?
The question is, why do they pursue their own personal agenda when it goes against what the majority of people have clearly stated they want? Who the hell do they think they are? A rare bit of good news and common sense from WA.
@@GeorgePapadopolousthat's your opinion which is fine, as for mine, Australia day is January 26th and should be celebrated, we live in one of the best countries on this earth 🌎
Come on all you in Mandurah and take the same stand! It is time to stand up and be counted despite our councils being illegal entities trying to tell us what to do.
We don't have a cost of living crisis, we have a property crisis, driven by foreign buyers which should no be allowed. and we have a bracket creep crisis, so while regional 1/4 acre blocks used to be 10k vacant, (25 years ago) at the same time, there was no income tax for less than 15k per year, so now that their 300k, the tax free threshold should be 450k.
@@IHG-ou8kd Nobody was talking about getting rid of Australia day... literally just deciding whether to move it to the weekend or keep it on the weekday, that's it. They decided to keep it on the weekday...
@@IHG-ou8kd who’s “getting all bent”? I’m just saying that this story, about one local electorate deciding whether or not to hold celebrations on the weekday or weekend… is nothing to do with “woke” or “anti-woke”.
Good report! There are many things the Australian government should be asking the people e.g the so-called misinformation disinformation bill amongst others. You don’t have to be a genius to know that the vast majority would be against bills like this
As a New Zealander I am constantly looking to escape wokeness. I've looked on with despair and and sadness as Australia falls. This news story has given me a tiny bit more hope. The mist dangerous creature on the planet is a woke Aussie.
When people complain about Australia Day, how many of these people are on government funding like Centrelink, or use bulk billing doctors and public holiday payments?
The council had to, as a fair group of us , were going to demand the council offices must trade that day, as they couldn't claim the public holiday. If they weren't open then, technically , breaking in wouldn't be against the law either.
Okay babe, explain this to me... How is this anything to do with "woke" or "anti-woke"? They wanted to hold the celebrations on the weekend instead of the actual date... they decided to continue with it being on the actual date instead. That's just a discussion about practicality, literally nothing to do with "woke" Even if your opinion is that "woke" people want to get rid of Australia day... THAT WASN'T EVEN ON THE CARDS HERE!
What would make people think that ewe have to listen to the government wether we can have a Australia day everyone in Government has celebrated Australia day its their job
how awesome i will be gathering all my mates to rock it out at the Swinging pig, come on WA lets show this Country we are over all this Woke Crapola, support Rockingham for having the guts to listen to the people.

Really our early ancestors were slaves here, Aborigines worked with soldiers to track escaped convicts.

Well done SKY, like your stance of truth.
Agree
If you don't like it don't celebrate it. But make sure you go to work and don't take the public holiday or the extra pay rate.
Same as people who are atheist and non Christians taking off Christmas and Easter or anti Royalists taking off The King's birthday..or anti unionists taking off Labor Day.
and the only access payment from Centrelink

SO HAPPY THAT COMMONSENSE IS RETURNING T0 OUR BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
This is the Govt plan, create division. 😔
Great to see 🇦🇺
Great decision. Bring back common sense.
Some councils are more about their virtue signalling than doing the job they are paid for. F them.
Have had a similar reversal of Australia Day policy in Adelaide. Unley Council also has reversed its policy.
Any company or department making the anti Australia choice beware ask Woolworths and Wesfarmers
Go woke
Makes you a joke
Business and government's
Around the world learning this
Some the hard way 😮
Isn't it more "woke" to enshrine the weekday that everyone gets off work instead of moving celebrations to the saturday so that businesses don't have to give people the day off?
Impressive. Very nice.
Now let's see Fremantles Australia day.

What? a council listening to its citizens, wow! There must be council elections coming up soon.
Finally !🎉

The waste of money and resources is just astounding, wasn't it enough that the federal govt. spent $42 million on 'the voice'
Australia Day is 26th January😊
This should not even be an issue...shows how pathetic councils are.
The date of Australia Day is divisive. I see nothing to celebrate on the anniversary of the beginning of the genocide of Indigenous Australians.
@@GeorgePapadopolousthat's your opinion which is fine, as for mine, Australia day is January 26th and should be celebrated, we live in one of the best countries on this earth 🌎

@@GeorgePapadopolous So are you saying that the aboriginals are not Australian?
@@GeorgePapadopolous Calling it that takes away from the words real meaning and is disrespectful of those that died in the holocaust.
A good step, now they need to start saying 26th January, because January 26 is American.
Good for you, mates. Up here in the Colonies, too many governments have bent the knee on Columbus Day.
